The big day is finally here!
After months of planning and a few unexpected setbacks, Meghan Markle has finally launched her lifestyle brand, As Ever.

There are only a handful of items available at the moment: some jams, teas, and batter mixes for making crepes and cookies.
Not surprisingly, they all sold out within hours of the site’s launch.
According to a press release that appeared on PR Newswire, Meghan’s highly anticipated brand was rolled out “in partnership with Netflix’s CPG division” and “products will be available to ship nationwide across all 50 states with plans to expand globally.”
To promote her new wares, Meghan gave an in-depth interview to the New York Times:

Asked about the controversy over her decision to turn her back on royal life and focus on entrepreneurship, Meghan replied, “I need to work, and I love to work.”
“This is a way I can connect my home life and my work.”
In response to those who have accused her of being “inauthentic” and “unrelatable,” Meghan points out that she got divorced in her thirties and often grappled with economic uncertainty in her young adulthood.

“Don’t they know my life hasn’t always been like this?” Meghan asked the Times reporter as she “gestured” around her $14 million Montecito home.
If you’ve been following Meghan’s career in recent years, you know that it’s been through numerous ups and downs.
Her recent rough patch began with the cancelation of her Spotify podcast after a single season, and it continued through a succession of disappointing projects.

But now, Meghan’s cooking show has been renewed for a second season, and her line of treats has sold out within hours.
And in the very near future, Meghan will launch a new podcast, this one about female entrepreneurs.
To be fair, Meghan probably still has a ways to go before her haters will be convinced that she has the makings of a successful businesswoman.
But after a year of decline, her career prospects appear to be on the upswing.
